General Part Discussion
SNIPE replied to Polo-Freak's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Loving these 2 new parts, the 5L axle joiner will also be able to be used to connect up 1.5L of excess axle where as a 2L axle joiner could only go on the end because of its center stop. Yes you could use a small CV joint but that had a male axle on one end, and the female half has a 1.5L axle hole without friction, and it hinged. Like this, as a single example: This has only 0.5L of the axle inserted weather you use the top axle joiner configuration or the bottom axle joiner configuration.- 5,465 replies

RC mod: I would like to combine this mod with thirdwigg's mods , I have 2 of those micro motors already, one for cabin tilt, the other for the tipper, but i still want 2 differentials so ill need to repositon one of the micro motors. I will use a spike prime small angular motor for steering and maybe a control+ L motor for drive with a buwizz 3.0

yes, only part that would fit over the end is the 45590 rubber 2L beam with 2 axleholes. -

I wonder if these new tan 12 tooth gears are compatible with the Daytona yellow gears 22 tooth and 14 tooth. Also, I'm stoked to see this piece being used for something other than as a minifig accessory AND with technic pieces! Shame lego didn't give it any anti studs (yes I own these pieces)- 5,465 replies

hi, I recently bought 12 of the new 16 tooth idler clutch gears from pick a brick and have many of the other new gearbox pieces too including all gear sizes either idler or normal. However I think the old orange changeover catches are more compact, used in conjunction with the knob wheels, 45 degree knob wheels and some barraki eyes. The fairly new 2L clutch rings can be placed next to 16 tooth gears with out it rubbing against it, and we have new flip flop connectors, axle 3L with pinhole and flipflop beams. (ill add links to part ID's soon) The gearbox doesn't need built in neutral or reverse. However it must have a centre differential. It will be connected to a flappy paddle gearbox, engine, DNR selector, and axle. Can anyone point me in the right direction

#17 and #18 panels It also looks like the new links are 8L or 9L but unlike the current 9L links, have a open hole for the ball joints *yippee*. They are also of the axle type, like the twisted 6L, 6L and the old 6L links. Here's 2 of them next to a 7L liftarm: I can't seem to see the new 2L beam with 2 pinholes and offset axle 2L on the side. I thought it would be in this set in yellow since it comes in yellow.

I decided to do the same mod that another user did in this thread by using the new-ish bike wheels with a half pin hole and glued on tyre to make rings around the headlights. Only problem is the half pin hole is too big for the bar so they be a little misaligned but they tend to center up well enough. I could use a tiny piece of pneumatic hose around the bar to help with that but they come in trans clear so it would look ugly and I'm busy dismantling my 42177 since nobody seems to be nodding it and theres not as much space to as the land rover even though the chassis is less dense on the Mercedes. The land rover mods still continue on my end however

2025 Technic Sets Discussion
SNIPE replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Agreed. I hope C+ gets the wireless motors but on the other hand, they still ultimately need an external hub to control them. On the other hand who wants to have to buy yet more new motors when we have barley been with C+ that much (2019) , power functions lasted from 2007 till 2019!, I even just bough a few spike prime small angular motors and CADA micro motors, these parts are very expensive, and so it would suck to have to buy these lego "wireless" motors. I dislike how we have to use this combi-hub because how on earth are we supposed to have so much variety in motorized models like we did with PF and current C+ when the motors are built into the hub, yes you could I suppose just use gears and axles but that's not a good solution for several things. Like, what about friction, structural strength, size and shape constraints, or what if we need more than 2 motorized features... where oh were is the fecking SYSTEM!!!! -

Nice to know the same old glitches still happen with this new software Like how I can't delete a quote on mobile by holding down backspace Or how the notification for some thing I just read still shows I wonder if the glitch where I can't type anything after completing a highlight by clicking a username in the menu after typing @ ok it doesn't sp far but it wouldn't let me delete characters after the nickname either as well as the nickname
